10 Installation (for qualified installers only)

Gas Line Installation

!The gas line must be installed in accordance with all local codes, if any; if not, follow current ANSI Z223.1 or NFPA 54.

!The heater and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPA). For pressures under 1/2 psig (3.45 kPA), isolate the gas supply piping by closing the manual shutoff valve.

This heater is designed for natural gas but can be converted to propane. Check the sticker on top of the gas control valve to verify the correct fuel is used (see page 4).

Leak test all gas line joints and the gas control valve prior to and after starting the heater.

The gas inlet accepts a 3/8” F.P.T. Fitting

The location of the gas inlet is shown below

A manual shutoff valve is required for installation (it must be located within 3’ of the heater). T- Handle gas cocks are required in Massachusetts in compliance with code 248CMR.

Installation must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier (In Massachusetts a licensed plumber/gasfitter).

With the included pipe installed, the gas inlet is located at the location shown below.

7-5/8"

17-1/2"

4-3/8"

Gas Inlet Pressure

With the heater off, the inlet pressure must meet the requirements listed in the table below

If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough and the total gas load for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.

The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane tank) should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed below. Contact the local gas supplier if the regulator is at an improper pressure.

 

Standard Input Pressure

 

 

Natural Gas

7” W.C. (1.74 Kpa)

 

 

Propane

13” W.C. (3.23 Kpa)
